Very useful video! I've been retired for 5.5 years and have no partner as of yet ; however, being plagued with constant pain from old military injuries and secondary conditions makes it hard to even approach women my age 😕! That doesn't mean I no longer think about Sex; I'm focused more on pain management right now! Tried visiting a senior citizen community center, and all they want to discuss is politics; politics; I'm looking to meet and engage socially with folks my own age ! It is important to connect with others ; thank God for my church ⛪️. Please keep updating your channel on TH-cam.
Thank you for this informative video. It would have been interesting to touch on women and menopausal issues, such as dryness and low libido I believe that is an issue for many, if not most women in the menopause years.
There is a lot to cover in women’s health and sexual health as we age. We’ve been thinking about perhaps interviewing a specialist in this area. Thank you for the suggestion!
@@RetirementTransformed I agree! There is a lot to cover! And then, when you try to locate an expert, we tend to have two different camps. We have the pro HRT camp and then the natural camp. It’s not easy for women to know what is best.😀🩵
I’m 63 and fortunate to be very active sexually, mentally, and in every area including fitness, heavy lifting/weight training and protein-focused nutrition. I’ve also used hormone replacement for 7 years and my hormones will be pried from my cold, dead hands 😉. Somehow, this year, I found a partner who is as active as I am and that is a miracle in my opinion. I plan to retire in 4 to 6 months and I am excited about having time freedom and leaving my very stressful job. I do have autoimmune conditions, but they are all in remission except 1 that is medically treated. This is a great discussion and thank you for it. I just subscribed.
@@TheMarpalm yes, as I wrote in my comment, hormone replacement: I was on bi-est cream, progesterone, testosterone cream, and DHEA. In Sept 2023, I stopped the creams and changed to pellets. I quit DHEA and progesterone. I feel great. I think (for me) the pellets are better than the topicals.
@@GwenMotoGirl thank you- I was looking for specifics and that was super helpful! I think this is really important and not talked about enough. And there have been some really bad statistics early on about cancer risks. But I think with the right treatments with the right dosage can basically eliminate those risks. Thank you again.
@@TheMarpalm I agree! I hate that so many women do not get hormones, and particularly testosterone, because of bad and outdated information. I know that hormones are not for everyone, but we should have a choice based on truthful and current info.
Such an important topic! It's refreshing to see discussions about sexuality and aging, as it often gets overlooked. The advice from a sex therapist can really help people embrace their desires and maintain intimacy as they age. Thanks for shedding light on this vital aspect of life!
Thank you so much! We’re really glad you found the discussion valuable. Sexuality and aging is definitely a topic that deserves more attention, and hearing from experts can make such a difference. Have you found any particular insights that resonated with you or that you think more people should consider as they age? 😊
Touch - Feel - Sensation - combined with affection is a great approach to start off with - leave demands and expectations out of the way …. Simply enjoy the company… / relax with whom you are… and don’t be afraid to love… ❤️
Great video ! You touched on alot of things we go through our lives together and think maybe we should " start over" and we where we stand now as a couple. We are going to try the " experiment you suggested at the end of the video. Who knows, it could be our new lease on life together! Thanks again.
That’s great. Thank you for sharing this, others need to hear that it’s ok to make efforts on relationships, even if it might be awkward or uncomfortable. Make it fun!
this is great. it's been 2 years. mainly it's because I feel unheard and not understood. my husband thinks sex and intimacy is " the act", I find it painful so we just don't. I've tried to get across to him many times that I don't appreciate that he goes straight for the erogenous zones. I gave up.
I have no desire to stop but my wife’s had enough I guess🥴 We were wild until 2019 with date night and enjoying each other. Then for some reason it stopped! She just isn’t into it now. Never thought I’d be a statistic… 67 and retired
I’m sorry to hear this. We have done some videos on communication, especially with a spouse or partner. See if you can watch a few of these together and see if some conversation opens up between you.
It is a great video and learn so much about relationships and make us more knowledgeable with our partner or spouse. Just need to put in application and use it daily in order to have healthy relationship in our life.
Consumption of alcohol is big problem. I am 62 year old and to overcome boredom consume 1500 ml ( 2bottles x 750 ml) strong beer in a week. It keeps me sluggish with heavy stomach atleast for two days. I am retired & maintain my fitness by weight training in gym and cycling.
I recently saw a great idea from another TH-cam video on "scheduling" sex. Instead of going out, having a few drinks, eating dinner, doing whatever activity afterwards, then coming home and being too tired to have sex....switch it up and have sex FIRST...then go out and have fun. This way, you have the dessert first, while your energy levels are best.
I agree communication is key but what if your partner isn't comfortable with hearing these things? What if it goes unheard? Is a text message ok to communicate such things?
I don't think communicating by text on this topic is the best idea. I think its continued face to face private conversations. Take turns talking and practice good listening. Reflect back what you heard. Be kind, gentle, and compassionate. Respond to what you heard and do not react. It make take several sessions.
The topic that I never see broached is that women are social creatures who tend to share more than appropriate with ther female freinds. Yes I am probably tainted because of bad experienes, but seriously, I thiink that a large amount of women share intimate conversations with thier female friends, most men are aware of this, and most men are reserved on opening up because of this.
That may be the case sometimes, but as a starter try and find someone you trust so that you can have some vulnerable conversation about things running around in your head. And I think asking your wife not to share something should help.
You did not talk about HRT or use about testosterone treatment for women? Are you using it? Touching is fine but I don’t think for a lot of men it is going to be nearly enough. Are you using any type of HRT?
Honestly I have used HRT thru a biometric pharmacist. I would suggest there is always a doctor recommending and thought the bio identical pharmacy approach was good.
Great video. You guys look like you are in great shape, which is key. Many let themselves go after 50. Way to tackle a tricky, but important topic.

Take a B1 supplement if you drink.
@@douglassmith2055 Thank you
Keep staying on top of your health. If you think you are drinking too much then cut back. Do what feels right for you.
@@RetirementTransformed Thanks
Well done! Thank you
Thank you so much for this ! Oui, Merci beaucoup !!
You are welcome!
Communication is the best point you said
Most problems begin with poor communication.
I recently saw a great idea from another TH-cam video on "scheduling" sex. Instead of going out, having a few drinks, eating dinner, doing whatever activity afterwards, then coming home and being too tired to have sex....switch it up and have sex FIRST...then go out and have fun. This way, you have the dessert first, while your energy levels are best.
That's a good idea! Thanks for sharing
It seems that many women lose interest, as it may become more uncomfortable for them.
The key is to be able to have open communication with each other.
I agree communication is key but what if your partner isn't comfortable with hearing these things? What if it goes unheard? Is a text message ok to communicate such things?
I don't think communicating by text on this topic is the best idea. I think its continued face to face private conversations. Take turns talking and practice good listening. Reflect back what you heard. Be kind, gentle, and compassionate. Respond to what you heard and do not react. It make take several sessions.
I'd be interested in your health advice also,
I’m not sure what you are asking for. Thank you for being here.
I enjoyed your session. Thank you.

Yes I am probably tainted because of bad experienes, but seriously, I thiink that a large amount of women share intimate conversations with thier female friends, most men are aware of this, and most men are reserved on opening up because of this.
Lets be real, Any intimate conversatoin you are having with your wife you are really ultimatly sharing with an entire circle of female friends.
That may be the case sometimes, but as a starter try and find someone you trust so that you can have some vulnerable conversation about things running around in your head. And I think asking your wife not to share something should help.
Really enjoyed your vlog 😊

Yes. A lot, and much of it with you if you are the Tom Milliot I grew up with!
Have a imagination..to have fun
So true.
Thank you🤓

What about a couples massage?
Massage ( I’m women) not young but I really want massage
Those are great.
It's very off-putting when she says 'wiĺl you keep still, I've dropped a stitch'.😢
Not sure exactly what you mean but I'm thinking that no knitting in the bedroom might help. 😂
Urinary leak ?
Interesting topic indeed😅❤
Glad you think so!
Finally the best information was at the end but definitely not from your therapist
What part did you like best?

Jody does not have a fan page. But I’m her biggest fan and blessed to be able to see her every day. Mark
Explore singles, options etc different focus.

It happens
Wrong…..Unrelenting fear is what’s going to be going thru your mind at that minute.
The woman is in charge of 'when' and 'where,' while the man is in charge of 'how. '
I think the important part is to communicate and find your path together.
It only gets better
Thank you for leaving this!

@@RetirementTransformed my wife apologizes, too. I guess that's better than other alternatives.
Non-existent. LOL
Sorry to hear that. At least try and have some conversation around this with your partner if you have one.

How can you spend 15 minutes touching etc and at the end say okay, we resume the rest an other day…. Impossible even at 68, 70, 72, etc….
Well it’s ok to adapt exercises like this to suit your own preferences.
I will answer this. It is an exercise to re-introduce 2 people to each other who have had a performance problem.
